There we go. Looks like we have everything to do it. I'll order the Ballenger connectors tomorrow probably

Re: Which LS plug wires
In case you haven't seen this document, it's helpful too. But it's all pigtails.

I'm trying to find the manufacturer part number of the connector, to see if I can find it cheaper. I like Ballenger, but $72 for 8 connectors is high. But they have done all the hard work of supplying terminals and seals. (Also just realized Ballenger is 2 hours from me).
Edit: I think I figured out its a TE MCON 1.2 housing (or at least similar enough to). Unfortunately it seems the keyway option the coils use (between pin 2 and 3) is the one that is restricted or out of stock at TE and distributors. So at this time it looks like Ballenger is only option.

Re: Which LS plug wires
Yeah, it sounds like we found the pigtails. I agree 9$ a piece is expensive but im not that worried about it. My coils should be in stock this week and I should have them sometime next week or the following week. Hopefully before February. Im getting really close to having all the parts to get this beast started.
